This monitor is a major upgrade from my current X34. This monitor has thinner bezels, weighs less, supports DP 1.4 (upgrade from 1.2), HDMI 2.0 ( don't care for 2.1 as my Xbox Series X is connected to an LG 65B9), 144hz OC'd to 180Hz (upgrade from 100hz). The brightness of the screen is unbelievable, as it is rated as 600 HDR. With Gsync Ultimate and for the price this monitor is a beast! I already have a LG 27GN950 which is 144hz at 4k at 600 HDR and loved it! I chose it over the Samsung Odyssey G7 (hate VA panels as viewing angles are horrible and it showed). So I decided to buy this over other contenders I had like the LG 48in CX OLED, the ASUS ROG Swift PG43UQ 43” 4K, and the 49in Odyssey G9. The price it's better along with value for performance. Not to mention the customer service is amazing. I went with 2K over 4k because my EVGA RTX 3080 FTW Ultra still struggles with high refresh rates at 4k. Plus the LG CX maxes out at 120hz, the ROG did have 144hz but no Gsync Ultimate, and the Odyssey G9 is flat out too expensive for a VA panel. So LG one this round. Though if I really could get what I wanted it would have been the new 32in 4k 144hz Gsync Ultimate by ROG, but I am not paying the ridiculous amount of money they are asking for it. I am glad I purchased. Would highly suggest.
